That website shows how much Google buys up and then shuts down, centralising it's power even more.

Nah, because there are definitely projects Google started on there. The one OP mentioned is on there, and I remember Google Zeitgeist from back when.

EDIT: Not saying that this is comprehensive, but only five entries reference being acquired from elsewhere in their description.

I didn't mean that every single Google product is a acquisition, just a LOT of them.
